Promoting Rural Exports Act of 2023

This bill establishes a Rural Export Center within the U.S. Commercial Service to directly assist rural U.S. businesses seeking to export products. The Center provides customized market research and export support services, focusing on up to three specific international markets per business, using existing data and services. It must be located in an existing U.S. Commercial Service office outside major metropolitan areas, with staff primarily based there, and will track metrics like the number of businesses served and the total export value facilitated. The Center will also maintain a public website sharing data, best practices, and contact information for rural businesses.
